How did you come up with the idea for the company?
听
The idea came from a very real and growing challenge in the fashion world:听overstock.
Brands and retailers are under pressure to renew their collections every 3 months 鈥� which means that every season, beautiful unsold inventory piles up in warehouses. On the other hand, consumers are constantly looking for ways to access premium and luxury brands at more affordable prices 鈥� but without compromising on quality or style.
And in between? Not much.
Most existing platforms either destroy value or destroy the brand image. Worse, fast fashion fills the gap 鈥� offering low prices at a high environmental cost.
So I saw an opportunity to do better.
To build a model that creates value on both sides:
鈥� for brands, by offering a selective, brand-safe way to manage their excess stock
鈥� and for members, by giving them听access to desirable products at exclusive prices听鈥� without guilt, without compromise
That鈥檚 how听Hushday听was born: from the need to bridge this gap, in a smarter, more sustainable, and more curated way.
听
How do you think the eCommerce sector has changed in recent years?
听
E-commerce has evolved radically 鈥� for both customers听and听brands.
Luxury labels once avoided digital altogether. Then came a rush to go online, often at the cost of brand control. Today, they want to reclaim how and where they鈥檙e sold, especially when it comes to overstock.听Hushday听offers them exactly that: a curated, invite-only platform where they can听destock without damaging their image.
At the same time, consumers want more than convenience. They鈥檙e looking for听emotion, personalization, and a sense of belonging. They want to shop smarter, discover new things, and feel part of a community.
We鈥檝e built听Hushday听at the intersection of both needs:
A听brand-safe space听for labels, and an听exciting, curated experience听for members. That鈥檚 where the future of e-commerce lies 鈥� in restoring meaning, control, and connection.
听
Do you think there is a growing market for premium fashion?
听
Absolutely 鈥� and the Middle East is one of the most exciting regions driving that growth.
Cities like听Dubai and Riyadh are emerging as global fashion capitals, with a young, connected population, rising purchasing power, and a strong appetite for luxury. People here are looking for听access, exclusivity, and meaning听鈥� not just logos.
At the same time, consumers are becoming more conscious. There鈥檚 a real shift toward听responsible consumption, and听Hushday听fits perfectly in that space 鈥� offering curated premium pieces already produced, while helping brands manage their inventory in a controlled, image-safe way.
It鈥檚 not just a growing market 鈥� it鈥檚 a听smarter, more sustainable one.

What is your advice to aspiring entrepreneurs?
听
Entrepreneurship is a mix of听caresses and slaps 鈥� all day long.
The highs are exhilarating, but the lows hit just as hard. Everything is amplified because we鈥檙e not just building a business 鈥� we鈥檙e putting our soul, our energy, and often our entire identity into it.
You have to be ready to听eat, sleep, and breathe your project. Your mind will rarely switch off. Even when you鈥檙e with friends, in the shower, or on holiday 鈥� the business is always there, somewhere in your thoughts.
And let鈥檚 be clear: entrepreneurship is risky.
I鈥檓 not a big believer in the 鈥渂uild something on the side and see what happens鈥� approach. If you鈥檙e not听all in, it doesn鈥檛 work. Success doesn鈥檛 come by chance 鈥� it comes with听full commitment听and听real, hard work.
But the most important thing?听Surround yourself with the right people.
Talk to others. Ask for advice. Share your doubts.
Entrepreneurship can be lonely, but it doesn鈥檛 have to be isolating. The more feedback you get, the faster you grow.
听
What markets do you think are leading the global eCommerce space?
听
China is still far ahead in innovation, live shopping, and mobile-first ecosystems. The US leads in DTC brand building. But the GCC?
The Gulf is the next frontier.听Young, wealthy, mobile-first consumers. A massive appetite for luxury. And brands looking for smarter ways to manage inventory. The region is ready for its own premium digital champions 鈥� and听Hushday听is here to lead that wave.
听
What can we hope to see from Hushday in the future?
听
Our goal is clear:听to become the leading flash sales platform in the Middle East.
We want to set the standard for how premium and luxury brands manage their excess inventory 鈥� with control, desirability, and impact.
But beyond that,听Hushday听is on its way to becoming a听true tech company.
We鈥檙e already working on advanced data tools to better understand our customers, personalize their journey, and anticipate what they鈥檒l want next.
We鈥檙e also investing in AI 鈥� not just for content automation or process optimization, but to听create a smarter, more seamless shopping experience听for our members and a more efficient platform for brands.
What we鈥檙e building isn鈥檛 just an e-commerce platform.
It鈥檚 a听tech-enabled ecosystem听that鈥檚 shaping the future of private sales in the region 鈥� and beyond.
